Description: This house started out as the middle one of three modest prairie homes designed in 1914 by John Van Bergen, the former draftsman for Frank Lloyd Wright. It has recently gone through an expansion and thorough interior renovation that, to comply with historic district rules, left its front exposure unchanged from the street - no changes could be visible.
The interior is infused with light, according to current owner and broker, Cindy Risch. There are both north and south walls that feature floor to ceiling windows. More than a mile of oak trim was installed in the renovation and there are quarter-sawn oak cabinets and a Roman brick fireplace. The addition, which replicates the original structure, is connected to the original home via a double height glass atrium. On the second floor, a bridge crosses the atrium, leading to the new master suite.
All the mechanicals are new and the garden has been landscaped with several Japanese plants, recalling the Asian influence on Wright's prairie style.
